Operating a successful Virtual Assistant (VA) business has given many administrative professionals the opportunity for increased autonomy, flexibility, and satisfaction in their work. But while the freedom to control your own income can be enticing, it can also feel risky.

VA Goal Planner
In today’s fast-paced world, it can be easy to lose sight of our goals as a Virtual Assistant. Often times it can be a struggle just to stay on top of our day to day tasks let alone set and achieve long-term goals for ourselves. Many people feel inadequate because they aren’t where they thought they would be at this point in life.
That may seem disheartening, but all it really takes is a little goal setting and tracking to get you where you want to be.
That’s why I’ve put together the VA Goal Planner. This planner will help you set and keep your goals. It includes:
- An inspirational quote to get you motivated each and every month
- Space to document your monthly goals, tasks and obstacles to keep you on track
- A section for you to enter your daily progress and a review section for reflection
